Communication with Me“Remember I am here to Help”
•In seminar, you can messenger meprivately by clicking on my name at theleft hand side of the seminar screen. I haveturned off the ability for you to messengerother students privately, as that seems tobe distracting. You can always email otherstudents and ask for their AIM names sothat you can contact each other.
